Europe's governments made energy expensive on purpose to stop you from using it
Europe's governments made energy expensive on purpose to stop you from using it!
Europe is anti-energy right now and taxes it heavily causing prices to be more than double than in the US:
- US: $0.16 per kWh
- EU avg: $0.31 per kWh (2x)
- Germany: $0.44 per kWh (2.75x)
Energy COULD be cheap if Europe wanted it, but instead Germany shut down most of its nuclear power plans which is one of the cleanest and cheapest forms of energy, and Europe continues to tax energy very high
Priority should be to keep energy cheap because spending energy = good for society
There's no such thing as a low-energy rich country
Don't let your governments make you think otherwise!
